Plot
Four young compulsive gamblers waste their lives on booze, broads and bookies. David (Jason Priestley), the heavy-drinking ladies man. Mike (Kane Picoy), a degenerate gambler. Cory the Jersey Jinx (Peter Dobson). Brett (Justin Jon Ross), the guy who tells every girl he loves her on the first date.
When they find themselves in debt to a psychotic Christopher Walken obsessed hit man (Mars Callahan) they come up with a radical plan to get out of debt with a fixed game.
gollark: GEORGEnet should obviously run over arbitrary IRC networks, apian carriers, bouncing signals off GTech™ lunar stations, amplitude modulated earthquakes, or ultra-high-intensity transplanetary gamma ray transceivers.
gollark: Perhaps we can somehow partner with OpenNIC?
gollark: If we run an ACME server it'll be compatible with all the existing tooling too.
gollark: Interesting idea. I think we could do this.
gollark: The main issue I have with things is just that the PKI stuff is kind of awful, but we can change "major browser support" to "certificate issued by authorities trusted by major browsers, or secure alternative certificate issuance systems".
